WT Bibliography

- Wallace Tripp‘s illustrations have gotten a bit of attention here, so Bill Peckmann followed up his other pieces with a row of book covers that Tripp illustrated between 1972 and 1999. (There are many other books not included here, but these are plenty to give an idea of the man’s scope and range.)

Many thanks to Bill Peckmann for putting these all together.

    “Stand Back, Said the Elephant” is older than 1990.
    My mother read it to me when I was a kid which would put it somewhere in the 70′s.

    Wally’s self caricature is him on the top of the page, at the art table, listening to the bunny demands.

    Thanks for more Tripp. He reminds me of a modern day Heinrich Kley. A nice mix of anatomy and caricature.

    Incredible stuff. His animal caricature is on par with T.S. Sullivant’s work. That “Wurst Seller” tiger is beautiful! Thanks for posting!
